# Sorting the mail folder list

# Default sort order

By default the mail folder list in the left pane contains top-level nodes in the following order:

On This Computer - contains all mail for local account types (if configured)

One or more remote email account types (if configured)

Search Folders (if enabled)

The folders under each top-level node are sorted in alphabetical order.

# Changing the sort order

You can change the default sort order of the top-level nodes under Edit Preferences Mail Accounts by dragging an account in the list up or down.

You can revert your custom sort order by choosing Edit Preferences Mail Accounts Restore Default.
